Default Does any sponsor sell backing plates for 9 inch rear?

Wondering if any sponsor sells back plates for 9 inch rear. I would hate to go through the trouble of swaping them from the 10 bolt.

Is there a reason you dont want to it doesnt take that long to remove
not worth the money to purchase vs taking old ones off

You may want to consider running LT1 rear brakes. They are alot smaller then the ls1's and clear drag rims better. I have a LT1 brake set up if your interested in it. PM me

My search function is dead and I couldn't find any info. on how-to remove them. I never have removed them, so I didn't know what trouble they are to do so.

well I lack alot of mechanical skills and i was able to do it
Pull brake calipers off
Open up diff remove c clips if no traction control
axles slide right out then un bolt them
there alot of little stuff in between but that is the gist of it

did you have the axles set-up to run stock brakes? If not you will need to send the axles back to moser to have the axles machined to work with the backing plates for the stock brakes. If the axles were set up for the stock brakes the backing plates are like $75-100.00 for the pair brand new from moser

I just installed my 9" 3 days ago and went with Strange rear brakes. Perfect fit.
